Femi, who has been living with HIV for several years, having more success in affairs of the heart, although somehow the path of true love never seems to run smoothly for Femi in the new season.

Troubled teenager, Princess, played by Sharon Ezeamaka, is struggling to deal with her pregnancy after discovering that she is HIV+, but will her older lover, Solomon, come through and support his child after all, or will Princess be left to face things all alone?

Other returning characters include Tobi and Weki, played by Timini Egbuson and Olumide Oworu respectively.

A number of key roles, including a brand new family from South Africa, remain to be cast.  Auditions for additional walk on parts will be held at the three On Tour with MTV Shuga events scheduled for March 2015.

A new focus for 2015 will be an increased emphasis on promoting HIV testing, in partnership with the Elton John AIDS Foundation, with the goal of encouraging 25,000 youth to get tested, motivated by a series of special MTV Shuga on Tour festivals to be held nationwide in March 2015.
